Uncover Profitability with Connected Job Costing
When your asphalt and concrete business is connected in OneCrew, you can get a better understanding of where your profit compounds and where it leaks.
The Big Profit Questions Owners Answer with OneCrew
Not every paving business handles job costing the same way. Here's how different owners are using OneCrew to make their businesses more profitable and durable.
"Could my estimates be more accurate?"
OneCrew lets you compare what you estimated against what your foreman actually submitted from the field — labor, materials, trucking — on every job, automatically. Do that across a season and the patterns become clear.
How it works
When a foreman finishes a job, they submit actuals from their phone.
OneCrew immediately compares them to the estimate, no reconciliation needed.
Over time, your estimates get sharper because they're informed by what jobs actually cost, not what you assumed last year.
"Which of my services makes the most margin?"
You might be doing $10M a year and still not know whether sealcoating or asphalt overlay is your best margin. Without tracking at the service level, they look identical on your P&L.
OneCrew tracks actuals per service on every job. Over a full season, you can see exactly where margin is made and where it quietly disappears.
How it works
When foremen submit actuals in OneCrew, they're logging what each individual service used, not just the job total. That means margin lives at the service level, not just the project level.
Pull a Production Report for any time period and see estimated vs. actual margin across every asphalt job, every sealcoat job, every crack fill, all stacked and comparable.
When you see which services consistently hit margin and which ones don't, you know what to sell more of, and where your pricing needs work.
"I want to catch problems before a job is over."
On a three-day commercial job, finding out you're over on labor on day three is too late. Day one still gives you options.
How it works
As foremen submit actuals from the field, your Work-in-Progress Report updates automatically
If labor is running over on day one, you see it while there's still time to adjust — reduce a crew, reschedule a phase, or have a conversation before it hits your margin.
The Daily Actuals Report shows every job that hasn't been submitted yet, so a missing submission gets caught before it becomes a gap in your data.
"I want my foremen to run jobs, not just work them."
The best foremen already think about efficiency. OneCrew gives them the information to act on it, and gives you the visibility to trust them to make calls in the field.
How it works
When a foreman opens a job on their phone, the estimated quantities are already there. They enter what was actually used, and the comparison happens automatically.
You control what each foreman sees. Show them estimated hours if you want them focused on efficiency. Hide margin if you'd rather keep that with ownership. The choice is yours.
